connecting to mysql from excel: ODBC driver does not support the requested properties.
- by every_answer_gets_a_point
i am trying to add data to mysql from excel. i am getting the above error on this line: rs.Open strSQL, oConn, adOpenDynamic, adLockOptimistic
here is my code:
Dim oConn As ADODB.Connection
Private Sub ConnectDB()
Set oConn = New ADODB.Connection
oConn.Open "DRIVER={MySQL ODBC 5.1 Driver};" & _
"SERVER=localhost;" & _
"DATABASE=employees;" & _
"USER=root;" & _
"PASSWORD=some_pass;" & _
"Option=3"
End Sub
Function esc(txt As String)
esc = Trim(Replace(txt, "'", "\'"))
End Function
Private Sub InsertData()
Dim rs As ADODB.Recordset
Set rs = New ADODB.Recordset
ConnectDB
With wsBooks
For rowCursor = 2 To 11
strSQL = "INSERT INTO tutorial (author, title, price) " & _
"VALUES ('" & esc(.Cells(rowCursor, 1)) & "', " & _
"'" & esc(.Cells(rowCursor, 2)) & "', " & _
esc(.Cells(rowCursor, 3)) & ")"
rs.Open strSQL, oConn, adOpenDynamic, adLockOptimistic
Next
End With
End Sub
whats wrong with rs.Open strSQL, oConn, adOpenDynamic, adLockOptimistic ?
why am i getting the odbc error?
